Does anybody have the torque specifications for the action screws to hold the stock to the rifle?  I should think that it would be somewhere around 40inch lbs?

I was told 55 inch pounds on my ultralight, and I have seen others post the same, or 50 inch pounds. I am 99% sure this is for both wood and synthetic weatherby's.

I'd start around 40-45in-lbs, and then work up to around 55in-lbs if I couldn't get the thing to shoot well or stay tight.  The main thing is to consistently stay at the torque value, in my opinion, and then to find a load that consistently shoots well.
